Halfdays came out with bib overalls (yayyyy!!) & an extra-warm puffer jacket. They also expanded their colors. But I've been meaning to talk about their baselayers — some of my absolute faves.
What's new with Halfdays, and a special discount code juuuust for us.
Naturally, when we're looking for thoughtful gift ideas (aka gifts as unique as the people we love) we head over to Etsy.
Sponsored by Etsy We're longtime fans of Etsy, especially when we're in the market for something unique, quirky, custom, handmade, or even just something a bit unexpected. Etsy is one of our first stops when we want to be inspired. So naturally, when we're looking for thoughtful gift ideas (aka gifts as unique as the people in our...
This confection-disguised-as-skirt is a welcome way to end The Year of The Sweatpants & if you have any outdoor holiday parties planned, then let’s applaud this skirt as the most genius way to wear fleece leggings.
If "sparks joy" is a legitimate factor in deciding what to wear (and, after the last five years, it should be)...then let's call ShopBURU's tiered Teagan skirts (latest colors here or here), wardrobe staples. The new Teagan skirts were too good to keep to myself, AND I'm still planning to repeat this outfit again this holiday season. NOTE: This story...
We're seriously in love with all these pieces from our fave Black-owned brands...from hand-painted mermaid cowboy boots to silky pants & swoon-worthy statement bags - it's alllll here.
To us, fall means layers, cute boots (yee-haw), and lots of neutrals with autumnal pops of color (think: greens, browns, a sprinkling of yellows, and a bit of burgundy). Neutrals make outfit-creating easy and add some room to play (which can be so fun). Adding texture, a print here and there, and a cool detail or two can take...
From simple, everyday pieces that go w/ anything to statement wear that adds a bit of shine, this jewelry is all from small, Black-owned businesses (huge plus.)
Sometimes you just need a little something to get excited about, yanno? Like a coffee or a little walk in the park (alone) will do the trick...but what about a shiny new ring? Or a fresh pair of studs? To each their own, right? 7 Black-Owned Brands Designing Seriously Gorg Jewelry We've rounded up seven jewelry brands that we've...
We're highlighting cool Black Lives Matter t-shirts from Black-owned brands, (most small businesses, some woman-owned, some customizable.) #GoodTrouble
Juneteenth celebrations are on the horizon, and we just noted the commemoration of Tulsa Race Massacre, which happened 100 years ago this week, as well as the one-year anniversary of George Floyd's murder and the reignition of a movement. As we reflect on these events and strive to support our communities, and as part of our ongoing commitment to...
We love a good matching pajama set from Printfresh or something soft + silky from Lunya. Plus-size, silk & more sleepwear from Nordstrom & J.Crew are in our carts.
I'll be honest. Right now I'm in a bit of a fashion rut. Or rather...I'm uninspired. Clothing is having a mo-ment, no? WTF is going on out there? I have no idea. So I figured, what better time to just focus on some gorgeous printed cotton pjs that I live in when I need a little boost. When I'm...

The perfect Mother's Day gift is here. We're LOVING this makeup brush from Yubi Beauty. Think: smooth, airbrushed finish without patchiness
This makeup brush is a game-changer, friends. It applies foundation (and blush and highlighter) flawlessly...with zero learning curve. Adiya Dixon Wiggins, creator of Yubi Beauty, originally made the Yubi brush to simplify her makeup routine. She wanted a way to apply makeup that was fast and easy and didn't require a bunch of different tools. The Yubi brush is...
Tweens have STRONG opinions. Apparently, Stuff Their Mom Picks Out is NOT COOL. But, we scored some kids' clothes hits: Spergo (Black-owned) & Jackalo (sustainable).
I can no longer dress my boys -- at ages 10 and 13 they have their own (very strong) opinions about what is and what is not cool. And apparently, Stuff Their Mom Picks Out is decidedly NOT COOL, GUYS. Not cool. (Let's ignore, for the moment, that my very job is scoping out trends and trying to...
